Assessment is through continuous observation and a practical casualty simulation.

Candidates are expected to demonstrate good core skills and an ability to make sound judgements based on their level of training and experience

There no written examination. We believe the best measure of a student is to ask oneself if you would want your loved one to be treated by the student if the answer is a resounding yes then you're confident they have achieved the designed standards

All students have different learning styles and needs and many find formal assessments stressful.
